From: Grzegorz Nosek Date: Thu, 2 Apr 2009 23:57:23 +0000 (-0700) Subject: cgroups: relax ns_can_attach checks to allow attaching to grandchild cgroups X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=313e924c0852943e67335fad9d2608701f0dfe8e;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git cgroups: relax ns_can_attach checks to allow attaching to grandchild cgroups The ns_proxy cgroup allows moving processes to child cgroups only one level deep at a time. This commit relaxes this restriction and makes it possible to attach tasks directly to grandchild cgroups, e.g.: ($pid is in the root cgroup) echo $pid > /cgroup/CG1/CG2/tasks Previously this operation would fail with -EPERM and would have to be performed as two steps: echo $pid > /cgroup/CG1/tasks echo $pid > /cgroup/CG1/CG2/tasks Also, the target cgroup no longer needs to be empty to move a task there.
